Math, Language Arts, Science App: iTooch 3rd Grade

iTooch 3rd Grade: A New App for a New Curriculum

Schools across America, including my home state of Georgia, have implemented the new nationwide Common Core Standards Curriculum. The Common Core Curriculum provides a consistent framework of objectives and standards to prepare students for college.

These standards include special needs and autistic self-contained classes, at least for my son here in Georgia. This may or may not be the same across the nation – check with your school district.

3rd grade students can practice and learn Common Core subjects: language arts, math, and science objectives in a fun, creative way with eduPad’s iTooch 3rd Grade app.

The app is packed full of practice questions, colorful graphics and animation, topic overviews, and 4,500 exercises.

iTooch Third Grade is also available for schools and districts through the Apple Volume Purchase Program.

Help and the Home Page

I would suggest reading through the Help section before using the app. It includes information on how to use iTooch in the classroom and at home.

Once you choose a subject, language arts, math, or science, the home page displays with a number of objectives listed. Students tap a circle, for example, in “Writing and Composition,” to start a lesson. As they answer each question, they progress to the next.

Within each subject, you can drag the page to the left and get a great lesson overview.

If you tap the pencil icon at the bottom, a note taking screen displays for working out answers.

Practice Makes Perfect

I love the practice mode in the app. Students can practice as many times as they want without a timer. They can also skip questions that they don’t understand. You can tell that you are in practice mode by the Practice Mode icon seen on the top right corner of the screen.

When you answer the question correctly, visual reinforcement displays in the form of a green check mark and a happy iTooch character.

To the right of the screen is a visual tracker that lets you know where you are in the objective.

Finally…

This app is packed full of so many exercises, students are sure to find lots of helpful exercises that will help them succeed in the new curriculum.

iTooch Third Grade enables students to get familiar with the new standards, practice the learning objectives, which will set them up for success in the future!

Who’s Behind Autism Plugged In?

My name is Jack Kieffer and I'm a blogger sharing my love of technology at blogs like Cool Gizmo Toys, Greenamajigger, and here at Autism Plugged In where I'm trying to make a difference in the lives of children with autism.

Several years ago, I began volunteering with special needs kids, who gave me much joy and an appreciation for life. This blog is my way of giving back. Any proceeds from this effort are used to support my friends with autism. Read more about Jack or connect with him on Facebook, Twitter, or LinkedIn.
